Remarks

Best University in India with highly updated facilities and a rich library and has the best curriculum which encourages research work.

Course Curriculum Overview

5

You need to take part in classes. There's a huge scope for Co-curricular activities and self development. The curriculum is now as per UGC guidelines, i. e. CBCS. There are different types of fests and competitions and literary programmes to encourage students mental as well as physical skills.

Placement Experience

2

The placement cell is not good. May be 10-15 internships a year, mostly for Science students. Till now I've not availed any internship.

College Events

5

Milieu - Inter - college yearly fest with events theme walk, dance, drama, creative writing etc. ISPAT Abahon - college yearly fest for Freshers with events theme walk, dance, drama, creative writing etc. Icon - college yearly fest for Freshers with events theme walk, dance, drama, creative writing etc. University elections - it feels so wonderful when its election time here. It's like a celebration here at Presidency.

Fee Structure And Facilities

The fee is feasible in terms of the facilities it provides. My entire programme fee is 10000. Semester fee ranges between 1100 - 1500. There's transparency is fee breakdown. The mode is online and offline both for payment. No additional fees required.

Fees and Financial Aid

Yes, the college offers scholarships of its own. It gives 25000 to the people in actual need. The eligibility criteria varies from year to year. In the present year, the family year should be within 4000 and the student must have secured 60% results in the previous semester.

Campus Life

5

Presidency University encourages diversity in the fields. With teacher-student matches to boys-girls matches and a yearly cricket match between past vs present students. Literary fests, science fest, economics fest, debates, cultural meets, inter-college competitions, theme walks, drama, etc and so much more, we've it all here.

Alumni/Alumna

The alumni network is excellent here. Alumnus helps the governing body of the college. The Foundation day is organised by them. Presidency Museum is a result of the Alumnus. There are past vs present cricket matches held every year, Watch party and so much more.

Admission

I got admission to this University via the Entrance examination which opts for MCQs. This institution is 203 years old and South Asia's oldest institute with a notable alumnus who has been Presidents, Vice - Presidents, Economist, Prime Ministers, Researchers, Noble Laureates, etc.

Faculty

5

Every paper has 64 lectures in total. They try to access the latest available data on the Internet as well as encourage us to learn from new research. The classes are mainly open discussions by professors. I don't know about the average age of the professor required but he/ she must be a Doctorate with papers published as mentioned by UGC.

Placement Experience:

Most of the placements that took place at least for the literature departments ended up with people joining educational institutes and NGOs. Very few joined corporate enterprises like Accenture. But it does provide almost a 5 LPA, if well placed. It is academically rigorous, therefore academics are weighed more than industry.

Placement Experience:

Students are eligible for applying for internships after the 3rd semester, and students can apply for placements only after 4th semester. Companies like Ericsson, Ernst and Young, JPMG makes visits our department for mostly analyst roles for economic and fundamental trading decisions. The highest offer made was 45LPA while the average is 7.5LPA. The median pakage is 8LPA. Almost 90% students secure placements after completing their degree since the Training and placement cell is pretty proactive in securing good company visits. I plan for investing and analyst roles in banking companies. I would sit for placements hoping for the same.
